Star Wars Anthology shit talk (Rogue One, Young Solo, TBD)

I'm picturing his character constantly breaking the fourth wall with a shit-eating grin. 'Man. How 'bout these Star Wars, huh? Ain't they something?' And the other characters just looking away uncomfortably and trying to change the subject.

'We sure could use some Jedi right about now. I wonder when they're gonna Return, don't you?'

I can't think of an instance where Woody Harrelson has failed to sell me on what initially seemed like a questionable decision to cast Woody Harrelson in a role so he's the least of my worries wrt Solo.

yeah, woody harrelson is never the weak link

what a career that guy's had, man - we should do a woody poll (*snort*) sometime

imo he should say the title in every movie, but it only happens in half of his films

"This country.. it's just not for old men"

"Welcome to the hunger games"

"Well, then I guess you're the true detective, here"

this movie will live or die by this alden ehrenreich's performance and the trailer didn't look too promising. imo

the voice isn't quite right, the intonation on a couple lines was almost there but not confident enough imo

rumours about on-set acting lessons for albut everquest do not bode well

they should have bribed Harrison Ford to record himself reading the script and then had the kid mimic it for a few weeks until he got it right

apparently Bruce Willis actually did that for Joseph Gordon-Levitt during the production of Looper but uh I guess he was actually in that movie

It can't possibly be too late to bring Ford in and have him reshoot all of Ehrenreich's scenes wearing young people makeup. I mean, they still have months until this thing is due in theaters!

Maybe change the director another time or two while they're at it, why not.

Ron Howard the only Star Wars director to have won an Oscar, thereby having one more than two-time nominee George Lucas. What a strange sentence to be writing.

one bald man fighting over a comb

Ron Howard's work ethic as a director is kind of wild

it's the kind of directorial career that can only be described as 'stolid'

narrator: it has never been described as 'stolid'

like a #4 on the bristol stool scale

No one can argue that Ron Howard hasn't made some astoundingly feature-length films in his career, or that his projects are ever anything less than fully-staffed.

I see a Ron Howard picture and I don't even have to question whether there will be end credits, a title, actors performing throughout its runtime. He's the total package.

Truly, Ron Howard is one of our most extant directors

Solid Entertainment Value

would that it twerr so simple

I'd err in the direction of "workhorse" over "hack" in that he can churn out movies regardless of genre convention but it's open for debate

plus I've heard he smells very nice

lol silby

Ron Howard seems totally competent enough to direct a Star Wars movie, I think? I mean, do people think he's significantly worse than JJ Abrams?

rumours about on-set acting lessons for albut everquest do not bode well

xpost Well, he's no Irvin Kershner, that's for sure.

would that it were so, sith lord

(think I've made that joke already, possibly twice)

So, they reshot like 80-90% of this, right?

yeah they realized after they shot the film the first time that they were using the shooting script for Valerian

OK a Lord & Miller Valerian could have been great

albut everquest

lmao

verily, the goof-potential for almond germanreich's name has nearly reached cumberbatch levels

obv the Coens movie is the only think you belt-and-suspenders ppl have seen him in

obv the Coens movie is the only think you belt-and-suspenders ppl have seen him in

Only thing I've seen him in is **checks notes** a trailer for some Star Wars movie.

yeah, woody harrelson is never the weak link
